What’s your bread of choice on Thanksgiving? When I was younger, we always had soft and fluffy croissants and they were my absolute favorite.
This year, we’re doing things a little differently due to the fact that I have uncontrollable love for biscuits. Yes, biscuits! Surprisingly, there just so happens to be a multitude of Chicago restaurants that serve biscuits at brunch. While I’m not typically into carbs at breakfast (love my eggs), biscuits have been a breakfast game changer for me. Giant, fluffy puffs of love smothered in honey. That’s when you know it’s going to be a good weekend, right?
A great characteristic of biscuits is that they’re versatile and easily acceptable at any meal of your choosing. Furthermore, biscuits don’t just have to be served with jelly or honey at breakfast; in fact, they are the perfect way to soak up your cranberry sauce and extra gravy. Another option is piling on the turkey and making sandwiches with your leftovers. Basically just determined to turn you into a biscuit lover.
I wanted to make these gluten free and vegan because it can be difficult to cater to family members with a food sensitivity or allergy this time of year. As you probably already know, I’ve been partnering with Pamela’s Products throughout this year to bring you more gluten free friendly recipes such as bagels, pumpkin angel food cake, and now, biscuits!
I’m being completely honest when I say that Pamela’s baking mixes are truly some of the best gluten free ones I’ve tried. They always turn out beautifully and more importantly, taste delicious. No one ever knows they’re gluten free. It’s kind of amazing.
For this recipe, I used Pamela’s biscuit and scone mix and added coconut oil, almond milk, a touch of honey and a little vanilla extract. That’s it! Then they were in my oven and ready to eat in 20 minutes. If you’re eager to try these out, look for Pamela’s mixes at your local grocery store here or you can easily order online.
Either way, I know you’re going to love these. If you make them, be sure to leave a comment below!

Dairy Free and Gluten Free Coconut Oil Biscuits
Ingredients
- 1 bag Pamela's Biscuits & Scone Mix
- 1/3 cup softened coconut oil
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar (or fresh lemon juice)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Add baking mix and coconut oil to a large bowl of a stand mixer with paddle attachment; mix for 1 minute. Add in almond milk, honey and vinegar and mix until just combined.
- Scoop dough onto a large piece of parchment paper and using a rolling pin to roll out dough to 1 1/2 inches high. You may need to dust rolling pin with extra baking mix or just spray with nonstick cooking spray. Use a biscuit cutter or dental floss to cut dough into 10 pieces. I often use a mason jar to make round biscuits.
- Bake for 18-21 minutes or until biscuits are beginning to brown. Allow to cool for a few minutes on baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Enjoy warm with honey, jam or nut butter.

What would you use for a blend of GF flours if you don’t have the pre-pack?
Thanks!
I’ve made biscuits with Pamela’s before and they turned out great! I always do coconut oil instead of butter too, love these!
the look of those soft and scrumptious scones is just too much… i’m dying to have one!!
I’m definitely a biscuit lover too! I’m going to look for Pamela’s Mix because I just started trying to cut down on wheat and dairy to see if it helps with my stomach issues.
Mmm, these look amazing. I love that they’re dairy free too. I have so many friends who after going gluten free had to eventually give up dairy. I’d love to try these!
Love these tasty biscuits. They look so fluffy and delicious!
I needed something gluten free. These biscuits will save me!
These look and sound delicious!
these look like the best biscuits ever!! check out that perfectly brown top, can’t believe they came from a mix!
I love how easy these are! Look delicious too! 😀
These look awesome, thanks for sharing. How would you recommend mixing them if all I have is a standard hand mixer?
You can definitely make them using a standard mixer. Same idea, just use the mixer!
These biscuits look so soft and fluffy!! Id gladly eat more than one without feeling bad about it! Carbs are life <3
